Life of Attendance is a Life of Becoming One with True Parents
through Your Devotion

What does it mean to live a life of attendance? It is a life
devoted to giving your utmost devotion. In the past people gave their
utmost sincere devotion [Jeong Seong1 in Korean] to
God. Today, you must offer your filial devotion to the substantial
True Parents. Offering your utmost filial devotion is the beginning
of loyalty to the nation; and saints and sages in the past lived such
life of devotion as representatives of tens of thousands of people.

From this perspective, today if you attend and offer your filial
devotion to Parents in the horizontal position, you will inherit the
right of loyal subjects in the national level and the right of saint
in the world level. It has such a value. Therefore, it is awesome and
great to be publicly acknowledged as a filial child by your devotion
to God and True Parents. You should know that such recognition is one
that even Jesus would envy such a position and all the founders of
the world religions would be envious as well.

From now on you and True Parents must be one -- as hard as iron.
Your relationship with your parents, based on the fact that you are
born of them, cannot be cut off by any power of the universe. No one
can disagree with this fact. Can you deny that you came from your
mother and father, by any argument? Or can you use any power to deny
the relationship? No matter what you try, you cannot deny this
relationship under the sun.

Even God cannot deny the fact that you are born of your parents,
nor can anyone else on earth deny it. By the same token, once you
become one with True Parents by committing your sincere devotion to
them, no one can deny this relationship. Upon this special foundation
that you built by your devotion; God's love will be dwelling inside
you through True Parents.

As you stand in this position, as explained in the teaching of the
Divine Principle, you will be filled with love that is centered on
God and True Parents; thus, you will complete the four position
foundation. This is the position of attendance. There is no other way
to do so.

From now on, you must receive God's love. This path is the path to
receive God's love. God's love begins from Adam and Eve on earth. If
they became completely one with God, they would become the subject
and object who embody God; thus they would become the second subject
on earth. By this unity, they would become the substantial foundation
of God's love. Centered on the foundation, if you believe them more
than you believe in Jesus or devote yourself more than you devoted to
your religious faith in the past, and you offer your utmost sincere
devotion to live a life of filial children, you will automatically
enter into the realm of God's love.

Moreover, in the past no matter how much you gave your devotion
spiritually, you could not receive the benefit of your devotion
substantially. However, it is a different time. If you devote your
sincerity to the Parents, they will not only respond to you
spiritually, but when you meet them in reality, they will enjoy
staying close to you even if you meet them for the first time. It is
a natural reaction to the people who offered their most sincere
devotion. If I say, "Why did you come to see me?" then it
proves that this person did not offer their utmost. When I see
persons who offer their devotion sincerely, I will be glued to look
at them, yet never get tired or bored. Even if they look miserable
externally, once they offered sincere devotion to Heaven, their
original nature stands in the object partner position to the subject
of love and God's love naturally permeates between the perfect
subject and object partners. Thus, they will naturally become as one.
So, if one goes somewhere the one is missed greatly. They are
inseparable -- they cannot live without the other.

Then, what will you want to hear most? You will be excited to hear
anything that the True Parents share. Then what do True Parents want
to listen to most? They will love to hear what their sons and
daughters are doing -- bragging about their success stories. That is
the amusement of the parents and the joy of God. You must know this.
